Hi, I've been using Kisslicer for years now and absolutely love it! I just switched from a .3mm nozzle to a .8mm nozzle for some larger projects and ran into some issues. Mainly the top layer is not smooth and not melting together like with my last nozzle. I changed to .8mm in the printer settings and changed some of the stepover settings, but no luck.
Top fill not smooth

Re: Top fill not smooth
Of course the second I post something, I find the setting. Is the correct setting called "Loop/Solid Infill Overlap"? I just changed it from .50 to 1.00
Printing a test print now, will know more in an hour or so

Re: Top fill not smooth
Nope, same thing. Doesn't look like anything changed at all

Re: Top fill not smooth
Set extrusion with to 0.8.
Set overlap to 1.8 or 1.9. This only affects the infill to perimeter overlap, not infill to infill overlap.
Every slicer I have ever used, I enter the actual nozzle size for extrusion width.
Perimeter last gives better dimensional accuracy.

Re: Top fill not smooth
Apparently I'm a moron.... This nozzle is labeled as .8 but is actually 1.0....explains a lot.
